the Rhine provinces to the Prince of Wal deck-Pyrmont, the father of the Duchess of Albany. The domain in question is Schaumberg, near Balduinstein, which was bequeathed by the late Archduke Stephen of Austria to the Grand Duke of Oldenburg, who has possessed it since the death of the Archduke in 1867; but he will now be de- prived of it by his cousin, the Prince of Wal deck-Pyrmont, who maintained that it was entailed and could not be alienated by will; and he claimed it as the heir of the extinct house of Anhalt-Sehaumberg, his mother having been the elder daughter of the last prince of that family, while the mother of the present Grand Duke of Oldenburg was the younger daughter.
 How men can be treated in Russia is illus trated in the case of the eminent Professor the Kharkof university. He has for some years occupied the chair of Russian law there and is a man of disting uished literary and scientific attainments. For many years he has been a constant contributor to the Russian Gazette" a Moscow daily paper, and to "Russian Thought" monthly re- view. These are both Liberal organs. A domiciliary police visit was made to his pri- vate residence, which led to nothing. A second domiciliary visit was therefore order ed and this time the officers were charged ostensibly to search the cellars for dynamite The pretext was insulting and prepostereus but it suficed. Dynamite or no dynamite @ man whose cellars were searched for such 2 murderous commodity, no matter if on abso lutely unfounded suspicion, must fall under the ban of the Minister of Public Instruction who accordingly issued at once a decree oi expulsion and indorsed his passport with the formula, Dismissed for extreme disaffection against the Government"

CHANDELIERS CHANGES.

The political situation in New Hampshire is interesting. The legislature has to elect a senator to fill the unexpired term of the late Senator Pike, now occupied by Person c. Cheney, appointed by the governor. It also has to consider whether it shall not elect successor for the same senator, whose term will expire March 4, 1889. The next legsla- ture will not meet until June, 1889, three months after the senatorial term will begin. But the Fifty-frst congress will not meet (unless in special session) until December, 1889, which would enable the next legislature to elect, before the services of the senator would be likely to be required.
 The Hon. William E. Chandler is the most conspicuous candidate, and it is admitted that ct the Republican caucus which is to be held tonight he will receive the nomination. But this nomination will not be equivalent to an election, as it would in ordinary times. The Concord correspondent of the Boston Herald thinks he will have to face a fight that it will require all his sagacity to master Says the correspondent: Marston, Sulloway and Bell, it is said, have openly announced their determination not to attend the caucus, and while the opposition to Chandler (for this doubtless means that they shall not con- sider themselves bound by the action of the eaucus) can be partly measured by the num- Der of men that can be depended upon to follow them, there are yet more obstacles in Mir. Chand1er's path to success iii the uncom- promising hostility of Senator Cheney and ex-Senator Rollins. It is common remark that when MT. Cheney went to Europe he left man to attend to his political affairs and rumor has it that the man put in his ap- pearanee to-day. Though MT. Rollins is not making an active canvass, he announces him. self as still in the field, and this will doubt less be sufficient candidacy to retain his ad- herents. Ex Senator Wadleigh arrived in town to-day, ostensibly on matters connected with the Supreme court, but it is not unlike 1y that he will avail himself of any influence that he may possess to help balance his poli tical accounts with MT. Chandler, and it is not unreasonable to suppose that he has more or less friends who still resent his treatment by that gentleman some years ago.
 But notwithstanding the number and &C., tivity of Mr. Chandler's enemies, good judges of the situation think he will at least succeed in getting himself elected for the short term.

was about to clasp the early Marguerite, with the dove-like eyes and the faxen braids, to his we'll developed bosom.
 Our widower, as we have said, was hand some. The dark brilliant beauty of the sons of Judea was his. No thread of gray had dimmed, his complexion good, and best of all he had kept his waist. Buoyant with ex- citement he plowed into the ship. To the stewardess he said: "You have Miss Lena Strauss on boarda" Delicious name. It seemed to suggest a clinging girl and a dreamy waltz as he mentioned it.
 "Oh, yes; Fraulein Strauss has been ill, but she is dressed and up. Step this way"
 How he stepped. There were several la dies on the sofas of the saloon. To one of these the strwardess led him. "Your friend has come, Miss Strauss" said she.
 Great king! was he dreaming? A pudgy, doughy faced, heavy-looking woman, whose figure resembled an more than any other, rose with little squeal of joy and cast her self upon his bosom. Lena had been fairy. She was as broad as she was long. Lena's faxen hair had been bright and so luxuriant that her Marguerite braids were as thick as his wrist. Lens's stock of hairs hardly cov- cred her protuberant temples and was dirty ash color. Lena in '75 had been fragile poem in petticoats. Len@ in 'S7 was a churn with a bonnet on. Who shall depict the cyclone of disappointment that swept over the Wl1oWerS soul! The nrSt Wife, Tn willowy style and Yankee dash, rose before him. Perhaps this was retributive justice. It wasn't poetic. But the poor man was as brave and chivalric a spirit as ever went out | to do battle in the Holy Land. Palestine I never turned out a better. He took her | home and, according to agreement, he mar ried her; and his Christian friends, meeting him out driving with Lena and the children, tell him next day he's lucky to have such a steady old nurse for 'em,

A Romance of Today, With More of the Pathetic Than the Comic In It,
 From the Chicago Herald


 the Pathetic Than the Comic In 1t.
 From the Chicago Herald.l
 Here Is true story: There are chivalric, knightly characters among men even In these days, and one Of them is 8 wealthy German-a Jew I think. Years ago in his native village he had sweetheart to whom he was devotedly attached. But 8 tide of emigration landed him when young man in America. A false friend brought him news thst his Lena was engaged to another. In pique he married the handsome daughter of his employer. In due time he entered the firm and later ca had the business to him. everything prospered. His wife was beau ty and half & dozen handsome children blessed their union. The only cloud that dimmed the fathers horizon was the knowl- edge that Lena had never been false-that the report of her engagement was untrue; and in her fathers house, unmarried and disconsolate, the sweetheart of his youth lived alone. Now the American wife was exceedingly fair, and if at times came the vision of sad young face, framed in haxen hair, the presence of a dashing brunette with lustrous eyes obliterated the fond re- membrance and he was himself again. How- osot, yeaI oI nioIe 0eo, py suooen anu fatal illness, the wife was laid low, and our friend found himself 8 widower with six children. Rich, respectable, model citizen and personally fine looking man, he was the object of many solicitous attentions. A dozen lovely women of his acquaintance looked at their autographs, and thought how well his name would come in at the end of them. But as soon as he began to think of such things the image of Lena, his sweet, faxen-haired Marguerite, came in, and after years decorous mourning he wrote to Ger many and proposed that, if she could for give his readiness to be deceived in the past, and would bridge the twelve years of seem ing indifference with her enduring love, they should renew the love of their youth. Back came the response. Lena the faithful, Lena the constant, wonId take to the sea per next boat. The widower withdrew to his library day after day and thought up the past, famed each little recollection till it sprang into flame, and when finally the Fulda was in the bay he started for the wharf.
 In the first communication with Lena after his good-looking wife's decease he had dWelt much on the need his little children had of a mothers tender care. In succeeding eplsties he let the children down one by one till their names were never heard. His first 1nten- tion was to be waiting on the wharf with Rachel, Leah and Sarah on one side and Abe, Sol and Isaac on the other, but when the day came he had arrived at another conclusion. He discarded mourning suit, and in jaun- ty rig of Saratoga blue and light hat the widower paced with beating heart the con- fines of the wharf till gang plank was run out. "After all, i" he said to himself, ssthere's nothing stirs the pulses like first love-the same sweet passion of youth puts the inef- faceable brand on the human heart." He

THE CURTAIN RISES

On the largest and most attractive sale of clothing ever held in this State. An audience was ready before the doors were opened, and the members of it quickly made choice, giv- ing way to others hurrying in to be first in the distribution of clothing at half it's value.
 The forbidding weather had no effect to deter the man or boy who saw his opportun- ity to reclothe himself in the latest pattern of cloth and style of suit at trifing expense, compared with prices asked elsewhere. Throughout the day crowd of eager buyers thronged in and out. They were surprised, not because we had kept our promise, for we always have, but because so much was theirs for so little. It is genuine surprise to the people, and they are pro6ting by it.

 Inhabitants of northern Idaho are com plaining of the tricks in trade of the Chinese. It is said that they mix gold dust worth $9 an ounce with that worth $16 and dispose of it at the maximum figure. Besides this they fail to burn their fine dust sufficiently, there by retaining much quicksilver, and also file up silver dollars and mix the filings with the gold.
 This bids fair to be bad year for fire losses. The fire record for the month of May is no more encouraging than that of the pre- ceding month. It is, indeed, a discouraging one. The total loss by fire was more than $1O, 500, ,00O In the month of May 1886, the loss was only $7, 100000, and for the past twelve years the average for May has been but se, 900, 900. The loss by fire for the year 1887 if kept up at such rate will far exceed that for the preceding year, for during the first five months of 1887 the total destruction by fire has reached more than $51 ,000, 900, as against only s44, 900, 900 for the correspond ino time in 1SS6
